Balance-sheet signals

Year-on-year changes in filed balance-sheet items. They can hint at momentum (or investment) but are not revenue or profit and must not be read as such.

Net assets: ▼1%; Now £3.3m
Cash at bank: ▼12%; Now £708k
Headcount: ▲13%; Now 60
Deferred income: ▼1%; Now £152k

Deferred income is reported together with accruals in this filing (“accruals and deferred income”), so it is an approximate signal only.
